In the last two decades, surgical techniques for intracorporeal urinary diversion have been developed with the aim of reducing surgical morbidity. Although increasing constantly, the numbers of urologists offering intracorporeal neobladder reconstruc...
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder creation is a complex surgical procedure, which is gradually becoming an alternative to open surgery.
BACKGROUND: Chronic urinary retention (CUR) is a frequent complication after orthotopic neobladder (ONB) reconstruction in women. To decrease CUR, several open surgical modifications to provide back support to the ONB have been established on the bas...
With the widespread dissemination of robotic surgical platforms, pathologies that were previously deemed challenging can now be treated more reliably with minimally invasive procedures via the robot. The advantages of precise articulation for dissect...

INTRODUCTION: FloRIN reconfiguration technique was introduced in 2016 according to the IDEAL-Collaboration Guidelines, with the attempt to conjugate the advantages of both intracorporeal neobladder and robotic assistance. Herein we report functional ...
OBJECTIVE: To assess suitability of Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) vs. Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC) to capture 30-day morbidity after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC).
PURPOSE: This study aims to examine quality of life (QoL) before and after radical cystectomy (RC) and compare robot-assisted laparoscopy with intracorporeal urinary diversion (iRARC) to open radical cystectomy (ORC).
PURPOSE: To evaluate urinary outcomes of pelvic construction and lateral capsule sparing techniques in robot-assisted radical cystectomy with orthotopic ileal neobladder (RARC-OIN).
